Liguori investigates the pathways of Gramsci's thinking, bringing us closer to an author who is more widely-known' than understood.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

In this ground-breaking study, leading Gramsci scholar Guido Liguori unearths the philological pathways through which the Sardinian Communist's thinking developed. Liguori 'excavates' the Prison Notebooks by examining Gramsci's relation to other thinkers, and concludes his study with a discussion of the metaphors used by Gramsci. What emerges is the image of a thinker more widely known than he is understood.

Moreover, without relying on a general notion of human emancipation, concrete critical theory can suggest political means for the...
